Show raised needed funds for Arcadia park

Dear Editor,

On behalf of the Arcadia Township Park committee I would like to thank so many for the awesome event this township hosted on October 4. By having a car/truck/tractor and craft show with children's games and a Chinese auction, this township was able to raise more than $2,400 to be used to assist the development of the Elsie Benner Memorial Park located on the township grounds in Lum.

Additional thanks go to those who gave up a little or a lot of their time and resourrces to make the park fundraiser possible: Arcadia Township firefighters Tom Knaggs and Ken LaLone, George Lazar, Tracy, Brittany and Bailey Lazar, Officer Victor Clement, Jan Walton, Bernice Dingess, Mary Kobylczak and Sparkles the Clown.

This was a fun-filled family day to help us raise money for our community park and it would not have been possible without the assistance of all those listed above. We hope to make this an annual event so please watch for it next year. We would love to have you come to downtown Lum and spend the day with us!
